Description: Large trees in this metric were calculated as the sum of branch and stemwood plus foliage for trees over 20 inches in diameter. This is intended to represent the most stable (possibly other than soil) component of the carbon pool, and can be an indicator of the carbon stock’s resilience/stability. For this metric, higher values generally indicate more stability, and upward trends in this value may be interpreted as generally increasing resilience of the aboveground C pool.--------A recent paper (Bernal et al., 2022), suggests that due to drought/temps expected beyond 2040, the Sierra Nevada may not be able to support carbon loads of aboveground live trees over 20 Mg C/ha (note that they report biomass values, not carbon values). Carbon values are generally assumed to be half of biomass (See CAL FIRE’s “AB 1504” methodology, Christensen et al., 2019). Conversion from short tons per acre (the default F3 output units) to Mg/ha requires multiplication by 2.2417023114334.----------------This raster has been modified from the base 30m version in the following ways:-------- - It has been aggregated from a 30m to a 300m scale by averaging across the 30m values-------- - The normalized values are rescaled based on nearly the full range of actual values, with the most extreme values truncated at the 1st and 99th percentile to reduce the influence of outliers on the expressed range of normalized values, with -1 representing low values and 1 representing high values. This interpretation reflects the desire for increased stable carbon sequestration, with higher values considered more favorable.----------------- Unit Of Measure: Mg C/ha
